Sidechaining in Cubase SX

To be very clear about this -

** I DID NOT MAKE THIS VIDEO **

How to create sidechaining in SX for use with compression or gate effects.

This came from the now defunct audiofarm website and was made by a user called "Counterpoint".

And if you either pay attention to the video or read the comments, you will find out that the plugin is the OptiumFX Compadre.

Here is the link to another video showing sidechain compression in SX3, which I also DID NOT make!!!

nice video man. This helped me remember when I came back from a party and wanted to do a tune with side chaining.

[MrBluntpuffer]

nice vid, very clear :) guys i recommend to check out the tutorial very carefully before posting.

saw this years ago, but forgot how to sidechain so here I am 8 years later and thanks again, I see the comments are all 9 or even 10 years old.

THANK YOU. i was wondering so long how to set up a sidechain to key and duck. that was technically called ducking what he did. Keying would be like allowing an oscillator set to a low tone to pass through along with the kick. Or allowing some white noise to come through on each snare hit.

now i understand, nice and clear, thanks for this

[andreschamat]

Very well and quick explained, thank you :)

KastuneMainz : right click on the mixers interface and you choose "Window" from the menu then you will se that you have the option to see the extended view of the mixer! hope it works for ya!

[myrang]

well you posted it and i wouldn't have seen it otherwise so cheers anyway :D

Im sure they sound great chriszanf but i was actually talking about the TC electronics VST plugin (for cubase...)

Its much much easier to set up than this method, as clever as it is, and you can sidechain the send FX which is nearly always necessary for me.

Hello mate, the plug in is called compadre compressor

[frankie]

cool track anyway! The bassline is cool!

[stanfranciscok]

TC electronics compressor has a sidechain feature where you dont need to do all this.

just put the 'sidechain' insert on the kick, put the compressor on your main output inserts and turn on the sidechain button -- voila.

n00b question: what's the difference between routing the bass to the group channel or sending the bass to the group channel? cheers.

[bleaksolaris]

do you still use a quadro channel if you want to side chain with more than 1 other channel
for eg kick, bass and hats?

VERY USEFULL TUTORIAL oops sorry for shouting lol

[joac]

hi, is there a way to make this but without compadre, with the default compressor cubase comes with ??

[JonsDiary]

because he forgot....he's drinking beer :D

[ethai]

do i need a special compressor for that?

[fro]

thats a good way but there is a better one, try to get the TC works vst and use the compressor de esser that comes with it with the side chain unit that comes with the vst too and its easier!

[Tideh]

He Chriszanf, I can't find this plug in by optium called compadre =(

Can you help?
